ty ty, i'm thinking of doing a single board, towards the cabin, to fit the tank and compressors on, then try to cover it up and line up my amplifiers somewhere else. I'll figure something out soon.

Should have thought this out before my install LOL

Dude was honestly GREAT, got the car done in 2-3 days tops.... I expected at least a 1-week turnaround time.
Very clean job.......How the spare tire well looks like?

So other than UAS bags over coilovers/struts for an AWD setup, does anyone know of a company that makes air struts for an AWD application? I searched and so far, Ksport, Airrex and Airrunner DO NOT offer an AWD application, only RWD.

Thought's on winter durability? Does anyone live in a cold climate? Would like to bag but afraid of being stranded in the middle of winter...

edit: I should have just googled lol. Found all the answers I needed.

Given air suspension no longer uses those squeaky air cylinders, I think you'll be okay man.

My brother lives in NC (I believe it's NC) and he's had a bagged LS430 and now a bagged LS460, hasn't complained one bit to be honest.

I think the colder climate would run in your favor since your compressors will be cooled nicely. I know today my compressors kicked on and off randomly a few times because I assume it overheated in the craptastic FL heat.

Thanks for the response. I guess the next question is airrex/air runner type setup or uas over bc/megan/tein? or does that all come down to preference? I'm more or less concerned about reliability as it is my DD. Test drove a 460L today and it was smooth as fuark compared to my 430, but that is to be expected lol.
